Transcend Launches e.MMC Memory For Upgraded Performance And Quality

Transcend Information, a leading manufacturer of industrial-grade products, is proud to announce the launch of the new EMC210 e.MMC (embedded Multi-Media Card) storage solution. The MLC-based EMC210 features simplified interface design, enhanced storage capacities, upgraded performance and a set of comprehensive functions. The small factor e.MMC is an embedded storage ideal for mobile devices, embedded devices and industrial applications, and is compliant with JEDEC (Joint Electron Device Engineering Council) version 4.51 standards.

Simplified Interface DesignThe e.MMC is comprised of the NAND Flash and the Flash Memory Controller in a 153-ball BGA package. By integrating the controller into the flash memory package, the e.MMC supports the MMC interface and streamlines the development of new products that comply with a simpler set of industry-standard specifications for memory management. Transcend’s e.MMC solution provides greater flexibility with interface voltage of either 1.65~1.95V or 2.7V~3.6V. Consequently, manufacturers can benefit from a more efficient design process, lower costs, and reduced time-to-market for end products.

Enhanced Performance and QualityCompliant with JEDEC e.MMC Specification Version 4.51, Transcend’s EMC210 offers speeds that are faster than standard SD/microSD cards with fast read and write speeds of up to 140MB and 60MB per second, perfect for industrial applications including embedded system, vehicle entertainment system, GPS, gaming, etc. Transcend’s e.MMC memory has passed full-size test during production and is manufactured with top-tier MLC flash memory, providing consistent long-life durability and endurance.

Advanced Functions for Industrial ApplicationsTranscend’s EMC210 e.MMC offers a number of additional advantages for embedded memory applications. The useful features include Enhanced Reliable Write, which ensures data will remain intact in case of sudden power loss during the write operation. Automatic Sleep Mode enables the memory to enter a sleep state after a brief period of inactivity, helping to reduce power consumption, while Quick Health Info helps monitor the erase count of the flash without performance suffer. The memory also features functions including TRIM, Secure Erase, and built-in ECC, ideal for industrial applications.
